The players just had time to make their last bets before the start. All horses seemed to be in good shape this day.
Many drivers had set there mind on a front position this day. Fastest of them all were Lola Montez. Coughing Grove ended up behind the leader. Adventurous Puma got caught on the outside and were forced to take place as first in lane two. Dan Widegren wanted a little to much in the start and Odette galoped for 40 m.
